Popular Post kurtgruen Posted February 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 24, 2014 As to the violence in Trat and Ratchaprasong, she said she strongly condemned the use of violence that has caused many deaths, particularly children have lost their lives. Not all red shirts condemn violence... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbOC5J8Npak "I have good news to tell my red-shirt brothers and sisters from all provinces. The People’s Democratic Reform Committee members of Suthep (Thaugsuban) at the protest stage in Khao Saming (Trat province) were deservedly given a reception by the locals. Five PDRC people were killed and over 30 injured" Dab Daeng Yep not all Thai People seem to fit the statement... "It is not the way of life of Thais who are naturally considerate and empathetic to fellow citizens, rather than resort to senseless killings" Hmmm...glorifying terrorist acts, wiping out a whole village in the name "War on Drugs", suffocating a truckload of prisoners, burning people alive in tires, shooting tourists, a whole village raping a woman, sending refugee boat people to their deaths... Shall I go on? 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Scamper Posted February 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 24, 2014 " As to call by many people for her to resign, she said she would like to ask them is resignation an answer. " Yes !" She said her resignation would lead to power vacuum and the tearing up of the constitution which is also undemocratic and not possible. " What do you think we are experiencing now, Yingluck, if not a power vacuum ? The constitution that you site so proudly states that your administration must be disbanded by March 4, as no parliamentary quorum will have been by then achieved. Will you respect the constitution then ? And why are you - as prime minister - addressing these crimes against humanity through facebook ? Do you not owe it to the Thai people to visit these localities, meet the victims and their families, and bond with your fellow Thai men, women, and children ? You let the Thai people down by your failure to do so. Badly. And disgracefully. Up north, your UDD friends continue to say the most horrendous things. One leader made such an obscene statement about Trat that it should cause you great pause about the people who support you. It should cause you great pause when such a statement can be made in the light of the unspeakable murders of innocent children. The citizens of this country deserve better than for you to turn a blind eye to the UDD. And the citizens of this country are tired of you stoking the hatred and suspicions within the UDD. The citizens of this country are also tired of you using the word democracy as if you owed it, far less understood it. You see, Yingluck, the Thai people believe that democracy does not begin with an administration that is packed with relatives, that is overseen by a family member, and that rams through initiatives that are both divisive and unconstitutional. The Thai people believe that democracy doesn't mean changing the charter to grant an amnesty to a billionaire, who has used his money and influence to divide the Thai people. The Thai people believe that democracy means adhering to the constitution, adhering to and respecting the courts, adhering to and respecting the independent agencies which are entrusted with the constitutional responsibilities that you are obligated to honour and protect. The Thai people believe that democracy means not imposing an emergency decree during an election period that is meant only to crush free expression and criticism of your administration, freeze the bank accounts of companies and academics, and deport people at will without due process. The Thai people believe in a democracy where farmers are respected as the proud national institution that they are, and are not called fake. The Thai people believe in a democracy that is more than anything you have provided for as much as a single day in your corrupt administration. 19 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh sorry I forgot all of us Farangs do not have a right to vote in Thailand! Cheers I think you mixed up who is corrupt and who is democratic . Here you go some proof of how democratic this government is . And how corrupt is his sister as well . http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYi23KTLh_g This triggered the revolt , and Thai people can't take a comeback of a thief . And the fact that the law passed with fake votes only from one side in parliament at 3 am in the morning when only Pheu Thai Party were present . And now you sustain the same government that made a rice scheme deceiving farmers , created a huge economic hole and made a foreign huge borrow of founds Who do you think will pay the debits ? People will, the same you and me, and the rest of Thailand including the farmers by growing up taxes and VAT . So i suggest you start looking in to this problem again, and feel free to re-decide since i think you are a rational human being .

djjamie Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 Determination to stay onto power to the last minute to uphold democracy. Stay in power just to uphold democracy", "could not let this to happen but would stay on to uphold democracy", Have you ever heard someone say "uphold democracy" so much in such a short time? yingluck is becoming rather tenacious in her ability to impel and attain Apophenia upon others. People's brains have an unfortunate tendency to see what they expect to see, and only notice what they want to see. Once somebody enters into a certain model of reality, a perceptual filter kicks in where they notice more and more "FACTS" that appear to reinforce their chosen beliefs, and they ignore any conflicting information that comes along, so they become more and more convinced of the correctness of their beliefs. With the PTP and the UDD having such a fear of facts this was a necessary ability for yingluck to acquire. In this case the splattering of "uphold democracy" and "yingluck" throughout the OP marries the words together and assumes an identity that makes it a "FACT" that without yingluck democracy in Thailand will fail. The majority know that could not be further from the truth and in fact all the principles of democracy will flourish without her, but this fact has to be repressed for the other Apophenia "FACT". The OTHER "true" conflicting fact is ignored after a while due to the constant reinforcement of their "chosen" belief. Some could suggest like a cult leader with his "flock" or in this case Nattawut and Jatuporn with theirs. Some may say this is complete rubbish, but that only highlights further that yingluck has been able to impel Apophenia upon you as well! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kikoman Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 You read a lot into it. I read that : 1 - She has been to Saraburi, in public, so not really hiding out. 2 - She feels that as she was elected, she should remain in office until the results of the current election are known. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Many leaders around the world have resigned when they have determined they have failed their constituents. Yingluck should do the same. It has nothing to do with democracy. Obviously she has principals and will do what is right for the people that elected her, as long is you are not one of her constituents, none of us Farangs are what you think does not matter!

Popular Post bino Posted February 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 24, 2014 So Yingluck is posting *in english* on her facebook page addressing the protesters...? First off, she should do it in Thai, not english... this is just a gimmick for the Foreign press. Secondly she should do it face-to-face, not via her Facebook page... Mind you, when she takes her instruction via Skype, its understandable why she might think Facebook is an acceptable communication media for Policy and Negotiations. Hard to believe it is really her doing it. I mean aside from the fact she does absolutely nothing. Really, they should search the IP, and determine if it is her- and second of all, the location- and hold protests wherever the IP turns up, until they find her and put some pressure on her to face demonstrators and speak out to them in person, to gain at least a little respect, which she has failed to do whatsoever in the course of 3 years. There is no way she is writing her own Facebook / Social Media posts. She can't speak English well enough to verbalize this content... so I would say that there is absolutely no way that she could actually write it herself. A native English speaker with a flair for propaganda is doing the ghost writing here. A trace of the IP address that posted these probably leads directly to Robert Amsterdam. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh sorry I forgot all of us Farangs do not have a right to vote in Thailand! Cheers that was then this is now. She is the caretaker PM she dissolved parliament. So she is no longer the rightful elected leader. Those elections are inconclusive, and may prove that she no longer has the peoples vote. They were inconclusive because the electoral process was disrupted by Suthep and his gangs. She is currently the Prime Minister because she was the last person to be elected to that post. When (if) the election is completed another person may be elected to the post. If however she is forced from office by other means, she will remain the last elected Prime Minister. The people who voted for her, and the wider international community, will continue to regard her as such.

Popular Post SamMunich Posted February 24, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted February 24, 2014 Yingluck will only stand down, when either her brother allows her to do so (which will not happen in this life) or when she is fired/dismissed via a court verdict. The past 2 years and especially the past 3, 4 months have shown, that she is so scared of her brother, that she doesn't even dare to decide on her own. Any other stand-in-person would have quit before getting stomach ulcers.And another thing: When was the last regular cabinet meeting? Even for a caretaker government there need to be meetings at cabinet level, normally at least once every week. That looks to me as if she isn't able to get this organized (even though she would not have to do the organizing herself). Are some of the ministers etc. already jumping ship? I would not be astonished. After all, there is no common believe, that holds the PTP politicians together, only the prospect of making more money. When they think, that there is more money to be made without Taksin, they will disassociate without much fuss. Actually I think these politicians aren't interested in getting Taksin back to Thailand at all, as they would have to split the loot with him.Caretaker or not, there is actually no governing happening for the time being. Yingluck and her closest circle are concentrating all their effort on two things and don't bother for the rest of "running Thailand": for one, they want to reduce, suppress or eliminate the threat from the demonstrations and for two they need to find sources of fresh money to placate the rice farmers.How dire the situation has become is obvious from Yingluck using - among all other alternatives - Facebook to adress the people, inside and outside Thailand! Can anybody imagine a Mrs Merkel or the PM of Australia using Facebook as the main channel of communicating? Fat chance! Facebook and such stuff is used by politicians to attract U25 voters but not to issue statements for the general population. Nobody in the West would be taken serious, if he/she only uses facebook.The increased violence against the protesters (regardless of which 'faction' is actually responsible) is another indicator of how desperate Yingluck and her group have become. It is like the last battle before defeat, when you try anything in the hope of changing the fortune. In 1945 Adolf H. sent out 16-year-old pupils, right out of the classrooms, to stop the Russian tanks with simple rifles.There has been the fear, that even after the fall of Taksin & Co. there would be massive opposition against any new leadership, but I think as soon as there is nothing gained any more from following Taksin & Co, most people will stop following the red shirt leaders. Even now the red shirt leaders are not in a position to provide the money to pay the farmers their rice. And Taksin will certainly not spend a single Baht to pay for the rice. He didn't build his fortune from wasting (!) his money on farmers.So in the end Yingluck will of course stay until the last possible moment, but when this moment is, is no more her decision. And it will be soon. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
